Why owned moorage?

Owning your moorage for your houseboat has always been a key component of value and security. Seattle floating homes with owned moorage are more valuable and also a more secure form of ownership so the above numbers are all in reference to floating homes with secure slips – whether on a condo or a co-op organized dock.

Seattle Houseboats Market Notes –

Well, first of all, I wanted to congratulate our buyers who closed on their new Seattle floating home in Eastlake a couple days ago. The market for Seattle floating homes is heated so this was a huge accomplishment. It is still marked as “Pending” in the MLS as of this moment, but as soon as the listing agent switches it to “Sold” you will see that the market was fiercely competition it. This Eastlake floating home was listed for $1,000,000. Completely redone down to the float, this beautiful Seattle floating home had a lot to offer and this was evidenced by the bidding war it achieved both before the offer deadline and then after the deadline, further. In fact, after we had secured it for our buyers, additional buyer interest came in.

This Seattle floating home is located on a condo dock – The Phoenix Dock, which if you read the late Jeri Callahan’s (The self proclaimed “houseboat lady”) book “Staying Afloat”, you can read about the Phoenix dock and how it actually originated in Westlake and was towed over to Eastlake. It is quite a charming dock in Eastlake. Final price? $1,115,000 which ended up being a steal based on the activity the home received both before and after our offer was signed.
